fresh theater… with bite.
THE BERKSHIRE BAT brings a downtown independent theater vibe to the Sheffield MA, with top-notch performers in groundbreaking new plays – as well as classic works reimagined. The theater we love to present is visually rich, often incorporating masks, puppets, or music. We rely on strength of story, actors, and carefully-chosen images to provide spectacle.
In doing so, we hope to leave the audience enlightened, engaged… and most of all: entertained.
Why “The Berkshire Bat”?
The Berkshire Bat is a descendent of The Bat Theater, a NYC company of the 1990s, which involved some of the same theater-makers.
Like the beloved, mysterious night-fliers, we have no permanent home - but we roost where we are warmly welcomed.
